Unions take legal action against Microsoft for allegedly mishandling Xbox layoffs

The brain is bourgeoisie

waking up like... well, it was horrific out yesterday, but maybe the air today will be at least a little bit better! the air today:

Loving t rex is how you know I’m a basic bitch

Still my favorite monster in video games, probably. Just a disgusting, incomplete creature with the amazing idea of a face with foreskin. The arena is very claustrophobic too. From Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow

oh man, i was so close

I want one single neolib to take a look at this chart and tell me, “the economy isn’t a zero sum game” Come @ me bro

telepathic gun has new feature: bullet riding

This is the future you are denied when your government doesn't invest in public transportation

Everyone with IBS:

The bosses are stealing our game industry, and we aim to take it back! We’re calling game workers, allies, and fans alike to join emergency rallies on WEDNESDAY, JULY 15th! Check this thread for times and locations as they’re established: 🧵

It’s cool that a lot of you pray to a god that sends bears to maul children for making fun of bald dudes, but you must still abandon the demon haunted world so you don’t fall for the pacifying grift machines

wait, GTA 6 isn't even going to release on PC to start? It's exclusively for fake gamers? wow

Lotta people talking about this article in bad faith here. Instead of seeing GTA6 as the swan song of western AAA games it’s, “Oh, you’re just gonna ignore foreign and indie games?”

Sam Neill on tackling depression and imposter syndrome when you’re between jobs.

Noticing a sharp increase in astroturfed video game news coverage on Asha Sharma’s role. The talking point is she’s, “cutting the mismanagement in dev studios because everyone is making decisions through 18 layers of managers”. Fucking really? MS has fired thousands of people. Who’s buying this?

For people just catching up: since 2022, SNK is over 95% owned by EGDC, part of the Misk Foundation, an organization founded by Mohammed bin Salman, the Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia. Misk functions as a soft power wing of the MbS regime, which imprisons/tortures/executes political dissidents.

If the N64 was so good why wasn’t there an N65?

This is half the appeal of open world games. Someone says, “Oi, cat eyes did yer mum fuck an alley cat?” And you cut them down right there

IBS: toilet hunt, with roguelike elements

coffee break

Put together a gameplay teaser to keep myself on task. My thinking was A. do enough to get a cool looking video. B. use that to create a kind of very rough demo for play testing. C. use that work to make a releasable demo of the first level as a kind of "vertical slice"

OPINION: I Think I Know How To Solve the Video Game Industry’s Problems ggtribune.com/2026/07/10/o...

Any company pulling this shit should be expropriated and become worker-owned. Same for game studios getting bought and shuttered: you don't want them anymore, cool, they own them now.

Starting to think the capitalists don’t have the rhetorical juice to stop us this time cause they have decided to rot their own brains with chat bots

Hobbies include: teaching people about wage theft

Grok made some concept art for the space x metropolis on the moon

Are you fucking KIDDING ME??!?!

It seems irrational that the gaming industry would gut its workforce and with it years of insider knowledge and team cohesion that can never be rebuilt, but the executives making these decisions have what many people are lacking; class solidarity

Ultimately the games industry is run by people who would rather fuck over their labor force than ship successful games or turn a profit. At some point it's not even about the money, it's just about ensuring that no one who actually does work has a shred of power or safety.

To players who are mad: we see you! The secret sauce to saving the games industry is developing player solidarity with workers. If you're seeing what's happening to gamedevs across our artform and you're mad about how devs are being treated? Tell them!

So I asked my wife what she thought about the potential game title and she instantly said, “absolutely not”

The threat of becoming part of the reserve army of labor is how capitalists continue your exploitation.

Last day for Steam sale so check out these steam (and non steam) games
